Donald Trump rushed out of the White House to spend the next four days in bedminister, New Jersey, his golf club on the taxpayer dime. Donald Trump walking aboard Air Force One, showing that he again doesn't know how to use an umbrella. Watch as he struggles to use the umbrella boarding Air Force One right here. Yeah, you don't know how to close an umbrella, but maybe you should try to learn that. Then you can see him leaving and arriving in New Jersey, where he struggles to even walk. All of this is going on. The American people are just fed up with this sicko. I mean, before he left, he was talking about how data centers are so important in everybody's communities. If you don't have a data center, then you're not going to be rich, and you're going to be broke, and your life's going to be miserable. Just remember what he said in the Oval Office before he left here. Play this clip. What is your message to communities who say they don't like data centers on their worried AI could become dangerous? Well, I look at data centers

very, very carefully. I mean, being formerly in the real estate business, I was really good at real estate, and I can tell you if I were running a state or a town, if I was a mayor or a governor, I would want as many data centers as I can because they throw off tremendous amounts of money. They don't take any energy because the new ones that I approve, they all create their own and then he brought in these ranchers into the Oval Office, even though he's like destroying the lives of ranchers. So he turned them into part of his propaganda in the Oval Office, and then he told them that they should start killing wolves, even though it's illegal to kill these wolves. He's like, just go and start killing the wolves, man, and the ranchers were uncomfortable. The whole thing was just so utterly deranged. Play this clip. I'm going to tree and held her in the hotel, but somebody else got there with the vehicle and chased them off. So it's becoming an immense public safety concern. And it's getting worse. Our sheriffs are all on board and are state calling you allowed to go and I'll take care of it. No, no, no, no.

If you say so, you're allowed to go. We have no choice. I mean, no, we have no choice. I've been hearing about it for a long time and you have no choice. Just like the process. Then in the Oval Office, you had Brooke Rollins, the Agriculture Secretary, and she was saying all these lies about how all this produce and food costs are all down, and the American people are doing so great right now. It's like, come on, it's the exact opposite. Things are not affordable right now. Things are far more expensive, and this is what you're doing right now. I mean, it's just so utterly pathetic. Play this clip. I think what's really important. We talked about 2023 just being a catastrophic catastrophic year for farmers and ranchers. One thing that was the year that we began to import more food for the first time under Joe Biden. Again, freedom. If you can't feed yourself, but in the last year, food went up 25% in those four years under Biden. In just the last year and a half, every category of food has gone down, except a couple of outliers. What we're trying to solve today is the cattle herd low. So we've

already begun to see beef come down. I mean, by the way, you have, you know, Republicans in Texas are terrified that they're going to lose this seat over there. That James Tolerico is going to beat Ken Paxton. I'll show you over here, GOP strategy, just Brian Lanza. Here's what he had to say when he was just interviewed at the end of the week about how he thinks Republicans are going to lose Texas because Trump's so unpopular, Paxton's so hated, and this could be just a massive wave election like we've never seen before here. Watch for yourself. Let's play it. Real talk. How worried are Republicans about Texas? Oh, we're petrified. I mean, I think we're going to lose Texas. You know, and it's just you think you're going to lose Texas. It's just, listen, we nominated a bad candidate who is not only a bad candidate on paper, he doesn't even like to work that hard. And so, you know, we're going to struggle. He's going to be required to be bailed out financially. And I just don't think the party's going to bail him out. So he's just going and all the while Donald Trump is still going forward, I guess with this midterm convention event,

this Trump a pollusa thing they're doing, they're calling it the Republican midterm convention. By my count right now, it's about 45 or 50 Republican Congressman who are definitely not showing up to this midterm convention. I think it's going to be more like a hundred, maybe even 150. Like, I don't think anyone's really going to go to this thing. No one wants to be near Donald Trump at this midterm convention. They know it's like the kiss of death for their upcoming elections. But Donald Trump posts away the greatest rally of them all. The midterm convention, if a convention is coming to Dallas, Texas September 9th and 10th, it will be a rally like never before for the first time ever Republicans from all across across our great country will come together for a midterm convention to celebrate our tremendous victories and success. What victories and success are you talking about? The never ending catastrophic and unlawful war in Iran, the fact that you promised you would end the war in Ukraine in 24 hours and you failed to

do that. By the way, when it comes to Ukraine right now, I'm going to do another video on this this morning. But you have Jared Kushner and Steve Whitkov saying that they're afraid to visit Kiev right now because of Russia's strikes in the city. And so the Trump regime is now bullying Zalinsky not to engage in any strikes in Moscow or St. Petersburg, or other areas in Russia. If they want Whitkov and Kushner to visit and Russia hasn't agreed that it would stop striking Ukraine, but Trump wants Ukraine to stop striking in Russia for Whitkov and Kushner to visit. Even though Whitkov and Kushner have visited Russia or Whitkov has visited Russia like five times. But that's what Whitkov is going with now. I'm scared to visit Kiev. You're scared to visit Kiev. I mean Biden showed up. Biden wrote in the train to Kiev right there and he wasn't afraid. And then when we talk about Iran, the New York Times reporting, Iran appears more confident than ever

after the six months war that it is winning that it has the upper edge. Tehran believes it has learned the limits of American military power retained enough missiles and drones to keep fighting and gain leverage by disrupting the strain of her moves. The broader assessment is that Iran sees little reason to negotiate with the United States at all now. Instead, Iran sees the move as prolonging the conflict through the US midterm elections, betting that high energy prices, casualties, and unpopular war will weaken Trump politically. He's already incredibly weakened politically, but I guess he'll be weakened more politically. And so with that taking place, the Trump regime says, well, we're going to draft a post-war, Middle East stabilization strategy. I'm not going to do deals with yourself. You're out. The American security umbrella in the Middle East is done. The American security umbrella in Asia is done. And in Europe is done. You've isolated the United States. You've irreparably weakened the

United States. The post-World War II US-led world architecture is done. China's the global Hegemon right now. Xi Jinping just took a trip to Egypt where he talked about the new global architecture in the Middle East. And it's apparent to everybody that that's what's happening right now. But I guess Donald Trump wants to pretend that this is Donald Trump being strong. I mean, by the way, again, it's just like day after day. It's like, why would you send our troops? Our troops aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln with the horrific treatment that they experienced. The boat, the ship should have just came home. I know there were so many troops just wanted to get home, but they stopped over in Thailand and it had the predictable results that everybody thought was going to happen in Thailand if you had the troops out there. Here's what here's scenes from the US Navy and Thailand right now that are going viral. You can see for yourself here play this clip. Oh, sailor down sailor down. Yeah, US Navy. United States Navy.

Hi, bye. Yeah, and that was reposted also from the Russian TV account as well. And then Donald Trump is so unpopular here. It seems like every day there's like a new AI meme just mocking him. I mean, have you seen this one, Donald Trump as the as the snail in the White House and someone's like finally seeing him in his true form? This is getting tens of millions of views right now. You can watch for yourself, but like it's more than just that he's the laughing stock of the United States and on the world. He's just this grotesque thing here. Play this clip. What is that? I'm scared.

And then I saw somebody else post this one symbol of fitness here play this clip. I have a lot of things that are happening. A lot of good things. The economy is doing unbelievable. Believeably from the standpoint of Wall Street, we said it. That's how people feel about this guy right now. Like that's how the world looks at the president of the United States. And it's so damn embarrassing. Oh, and by the way, as Donald Trump claims that things are so much better in Venezuela and that people are so happy now. No, they're not. You've just propped up an extension of the Maduro regime. The Delci Rodriguez regime is still having all the same issues. Maduro did. They're still the blackouts. They're still the issues with the electricity grid there. Oh, and by the way, the Trump regime did this fake oil deal of 65 billion barrels of oil, which is not even a real deal. I've done a lot of videos debunking with Alejandro Benticourt, one of the bullied chicos who was responsible for the flawed electricity grid who made huge amounts of money for himself on it. But you can see right here that

the people in Venezuela are absolutely suffering still. They're enduring blackouts. They can't take it anymore. This is what's really happening in Venezuela right now. You can see for yourself. But now, without a doubt, you have to pay the bill. This is not life. In these days, you know, in these days, you know, in these days, there's a lot of work. The light is like three and a half hours. In the middle of the the party and we work 24 hours. We don't finish. We don't know who responsible here for us. We really don't know who responsible for us. Because I don't see that solution for me. I don't see how each day is worse. I don't want to have anything to do with it. I don't want to have anything to do with it. We're going to see it when we get there. Oh, we want to see it. We want to see it. We want to see it. We want to see it. We want to see it. We want to see it. We want to see it.

And this is what they're posting in Iran. Good day from Iran, the most sanctioned country in the world. And they're saying this is what Iran looks like today. Here, play this clip. And with all of that taking place, you have Pete Hegsiff and announcing that the pentagon is going to temporarily pull its mandatory testosterone screening order just one day after issuing it. Wow. Very, very stable regime we have here. The guidance which would have required blood tests for all troops 30 and older was removed from the website and reclassified as a draft because medical experts objected saying there's insufficient evidence for mass screening of men without symptoms. Symptoms of what? What are we

doing? We're doing to oh, and then Hegsiff is mocking a pride event in Canada after mocking the young high school student cadets in Canada who aren't even in the military. They're cadets and he mock them and try to shame them. He then is mocking the pride event in Canada. What's wrong with these people? Like seriously, why why this Trump regime is a bunch of sick, sick humans who don't even know how to use an umbrella? Like learned, learned, learned, he doesn't even know how to use an umbrella. And he's in bedminster for the weekend on the taxpayer dime and he's running away from this catastrophic war that he lost and they're covering up the Epstein files. The whole thing is just a mess.
